It is what Americans believe. Lead us to believe something different. Truth, many times has a lot more to do with perspective than actuality. Truth is relative.

This arrogance towards the 3rd world contries is nothing new, america showed before that they are not the masters of "careful foreign policy". Now they are like a raging bull that does what it wants to do, without listening to their allies (they listening as long as we say what they want to hear), without thinking about consequences.
America has, and most americans here in this forum amplify this feeling in me, a problem to see the numerous grey shades in the world. it is my way or the highway, no compromise. Hate me or love me, nothing in between, just black and white

Not all americans are arrogant. Please do not hold me responsible for your opinions. Presumption is part of arrogance, too. I am sorry you feel that way towards Americans, perhaps, if you'll let me, I can change your mind. I certainly do not feel superior to anyone here, let alone abroad. I did not understand you're shades of grey concept with regards to my statement about terrorists only wanting my death. How can I compromise with that? Could I be dead on Monday, Wednesday and Friday but alive on the off days? Sometimes the decisions are simply "nothing in between". BTW: I didn't ask you to love me nor did I demand that you see things my way.
